and {.tv_sec = 0, .tv_nsec=0} means do not block at all. Add a comment
saying so. The code incorrectly treats them both as an infinite timeout,
and that is not fixed by this commit.
(and pollts(2)) are similar to sigsuspend(2) in that they temporarily change
the process signal mask and wait for signal delivery. Factor out and share the
code that does this.
Rename real routines to proc_find() and pgrp_find(), remove PFIND_* flags
and have consistent behaviour. Provide proc_find_raw() for special cases.
Fix memory leak in sysctl_proc_corename().
COMPAT_LINUX: rework ptrace() locking, minimise differences between
different versions per-arch.
Note: while this change adds some formal cosmetics for COMPAT_DARWIN and
COMPAT_IRIX - locking there is utterly broken (for ages).
Fixes PR/43176.
__assert -> kern_assert
__sigtimedwait1 -> sigtimedwait1
__wdstart -> wdstart1
The rest are MD and/or shared with userspace, so they will require
a little more involvement than what is available for this quick
"ride the 5.99.24 bump" action.
Allocate ksiginfo on stack since it is safe and sigget() assumes that it is
not allocated from pool (pending signals via sigput()/sigget() "mill" should
be dynamically allocated, however). Might be useful to revisit later.
Likely the cause of PR/40750 and indirect cause of PR/39283.
into modules. By and large this commit:
- shuffles header files and ifdefs
- splits code out where necessary to be modular
- adds module glue for each of the components
- adds/replaces hooks for things that can be installed at runtime
- Split 4.3BSD ifioctl stuff into its own file.
- Remove some ifdefs that include small fragments of vfs compat code
which are difficult to relocate elsewhere.
we no longer need to guard against access from hardware interrupt handlers.
Additionally, if cloning a process with CLONE_SIGHAND, arrange to have the
child process share the parent's lock so that signal state may be kept in
sync. Partially addresses PR kern/37437.
proclist_mutex and proclist_lock into a single adaptive mutex (proc_lock).
Implications:
- Inspecting process state requires thread context, so signals can no longer
be sent from a hardware interrupt handler. Signal activity must be
deferred to a soft interrupt or kthread.
- As the proc state locking is simplified, it's now safe to take exit()
and wait() out from under kernel_lock.
- The system spends less time at IPL_SCHED, and there is less lock activity.

int foo(struct lwp *l, const struct foo_args *uap, register_t *retval)
Fixup compat code to not write into 'uap' and (in some cases) to actually
pass a correctly formatted 'uap' structure with the right name to the
next routine.
A few 'compat' routines that just call standard ones have been deleted.
All the 'compat' code compiles (along with the kernels required to test
build it).
98% done by automated scripts.
P_*/L_* naming convention, and rename the in-kernel flags to avoid
conflict. (P_ -> PK_, L_ -> LW_ ). Add back the (now unused) LSDEAD
constant.
Restores source compatibility with pre-newlock2 tools like ps or top.
